An dem in Fig. 1 gezeigten Kopf eines Pferdes ist eine Trense 1 mit einem Nasenriemen 2 und einem Genickriemen 3 angelegt. Eine die Nüstern 4 des Pferdes umfassende Nasenpartie 5 des Pferdekopfes ist mit einer durch Strichlinien dargestellten Maskenbaueinheit 6 bedeckt, die in dem gezeigten Beispiel sämtliche der in Fig. 2 schematisch dargestellten Komponenten eines Inhalationsgerätes 7 umfasst. Über das Inhalationsgerät 7 kann das Pferd ein auf die Atemwege einwirkendes Aerosol einatmen. Das Inhalationsgerät 7 kann auch ohne Abgabe eines medizinischen Aerosols auch nur zur Befeuchtung der Atemwege des Pferdes dienen. Letzteres kommt insbesondere für Pferde mit chronischer Bronchitis (COPO) in Betracht. Das Inhalationsgerät 7 eröffnet die Möglichkeit, solche Pferde als Reitpferde einzusetzen.At the in Fig. 1 The head of a horse shown is a bridle 1 with a noseband 2 and a neck strap 3. A nose portion 5 of the horse's head that encompasses the nostrils 4 of the horse is covered with a mask assembly 6, shown by dashed lines, which in the example shown includes all of the elements in Fig. 2 comprises schematically illustrated components of an inhalation device 7. The horse can inhale an aerosol acting on the respiratory tract via the inhalation device 7. The inhalation device 7 can also only be used to moisten the horse's airways without dispensing a medical aerosol. The latter is particularly useful for horses with chronic bronchitis (COPO). The inhalation device 7 opens up the possibility of using such horses as riding horses.

Die Maskenbaueinheit 6 weist eine in Fig. 3 dargestellte Anlagefläche 8 auf, die an die Form der Nasenpartie 5 des Pferdekopfes angepasst ist. Durch diese Anpassung findet die Maskenbaueinheit 6 auf dem Pferdekopf sicheren Halt. Zudem ist sie an dem Nasenriemen 2 befestigt, vorzugsweise durch einen Klettverschluss 10. Eine weitere Befestigung kann bei Bedarf über einen die Unterkieferpartie des Pferdekopfes umschlingenden Riemen 9 erfolgen. Wie Fig. 3 ferner zu entnehmen ist, münden in der Anlagefläche 8 Austrittsöffnungen 11 aus, die im aufgesetzten Zustand der Maskenbaueinheit 6 zu den Nüstern 4 des Pferdes ausgerichtet sind. Über die Austrittsöffnungen 11 stehen die Nüstern 4 in Verbindung mit Einrichtungen zur Aerosolbildung sowie über einen ringförmig ausmündenden Nebenluftkanal 12 in Verbindung mit der Außenumgebung.The mask assembly 6 has an in Fig. 3 shown contact surface 8, which is adapted to the shape of the nose portion 5 of the horse's head. As a result of this adaptation, the mask assembly 6 is held securely on the horse's head. In addition, it is fastened to the noseband 2, preferably by means of a Velcro fastener 10. A further fastening can, if necessary, take place via a belt 9 wrapping around the lower jaw part of the horse's head. How Fig. 3 It can also be seen that outlet openings 11 open out in the contact surface 8, which, when the mask assembly 6 is in place, are aligned with the nostrils 4 of the horse. The nostrils 4 are in connection with devices for aerosol formation via the outlet openings 11 and in connection with the outside environment via a ring-shaped secondary air duct 12.

Wie oben bereits erwähnt, enthält die Maskenbaueinheit 6 sämtliche der in Fig. 2 schematisch gezeigten Komponenten, die ein komplettes Inhalationsgerät 7 bilden.As already mentioned above, the mask assembly 6 contains all of the in Fig. 2 Components shown schematically, which form a complete inhalation device 7.

In einem Gehäuse 13, dessen der Nasenpartie 5 zugewandte Seite die formangepasste Anlagefläche 8 mit den Austrittsöffnungen 11 bildet, sind ein Flüssigkeitstank 14 für die Aufnahme einer Aerosol bildenden Flüssigkeit, eine aufladbare Batterie 15, eine elektronische Steuereinheit 16 sowie eine Zerstäubereinheit 17 untergebracht. Die auf Piezobasis arbeitende Zerstäubereinheit 17 steht in Verbindung mit dem Flüssigkeitstank 14 und der Batterie 15, wobei letztere ferner die Einheit 16 mit Betriebsstrom versorgt, welche die Aerosolbildung durch die Zerstäubereinheit 17 steuert.A liquid tank 14 for receiving an aerosol-forming liquid, a rechargeable battery 15, an electronic control unit 16 and an atomizer unit 17 are accommodated in a housing 13, the side of which facing the nose part 5 forms the shape-adapted contact surface 8 with the outlet openings 11. The piezo-based atomizer unit 17 is connected to the liquid tank 14 and the battery 15, the latter also supplying the unit 16 with operating current, which controls the aerosol formation by the atomizer unit 17.

Aerosolaustrittsbereiche 18 der Zerstäubereinheit 17 sind zu den in der Anlagefläche 8 ausmündenden Austrittsöffnungen 11 ausgerichtet. Die oben erwähnten Nebenluftkanäle 12 münden bei 19 in der Wand des Gehäuses 13 ins Freie aus.Aerosol outlet areas 18 of the atomizer unit 17 are aligned with the outlet openings 11 opening out in the contact surface 8. The above-mentioned secondary air channels 12 open into the open at 19 in the wall of the housing 13.

Die Steuereinheit 16 umfasst eine (nicht dargestellte) Kommunikationseinrichtung zum drahtlosen Empfang von Steuersignalen, insbesondere Ein- und Ausschaltsignalen, die ein z.B. von einem Reiter mitgeführtes Steuergerät, ggf. ein Mobiltelefon, abgibt. Es versteht sich, dass am Gehäuse 13 ferner ein Handschalter zum Ein- und Ausschalten des Inhalationsgerätes 7 vorgesehen sein kann.The control unit 16 comprises a communication device (not shown) for the wireless reception of control signals, in particular switch-on and switch-off signals, which a control device, e.g. a mobile phone, carried by a rider, for example, emits. It goes without saying that a manual switch for switching the inhalation device 7 on and off can also be provided on the housing 13.

Im Betrieb des am Nasenriemen 2 und ggf. über den Riemen 9 befestigten Inhalationsgerätes 7 gelangt durch die Austrittsöffnungen 11 hindurch die Atmung des Pferdes förderndes Aerosol 20 in die Nüstern 4 und damit in die Atemwege. Beim Ausatmen jeweils durch die Nüstern strömende Luft kann über die Nebenluftkanäle 12 und die Öffnungen 19 nach außen gelangen.During operation of the inhalation device 7 attached to the noseband 2 and possibly via the belt 9, aerosol 20 promoting the horse's breathing passes through the outlet openings 11 into the nostrils 4 and thus into the airways. When exhaling, air flowing through the nostrils in each case can reach the outside via the secondary air channels 12 and the openings 19.

Ein die Austrittsströmung erfassender, mit der Steuereinheit 16 verbundener Sensor (nicht gezeigt) kann ein Steuersignal liefern, durch das während der Ausatmungsphasen die Bildung von Aerosol 20 unterbrochen und damit der Flüssigkeitsverbrauch im Tank 14 gesenkt wird.A sensor (not shown) that detects the outlet flow and is connected to the control unit 16 can supply a control signal by means of which the formation of aerosol 20 is interrupted during the exhalation phases and thus the liquid consumption in the tank 14 is reduced.

Abweichend von dem gezeigten Beispiel, in welchem sämtliche Komponenten des Inhalationsgerätes 7 in der Maskenbaueinheit 6 zusammengefasst sind, könnten Komponenten des Inhalationsgerätes 7 auch in einer gesonderten Baugruppe oder mehreren solchen Baugruppen angeordnet werden, wobei die Maskenbaugruppe ggf. nur die Zerstäubereinheit 17 enthält, welche dann über zugeführte Kabel und Leitungen mit den übrigen Komponenten in Verbindung steht. Solche gesonderte Baugruppen könnten z.B. mit dem Genickriemen 3 verbunden sein, insbesondere über einen Klettverschluss.Deviating from the example shown, in which all components of the inhalation device 7 are combined in the mask assembly 6, components of the inhalation device 7 could also be arranged in a separate assembly or several such assemblies, the mask assembly possibly only containing the atomizer unit 17, which then is connected to the other components via supplied cables and lines. Such separate assemblies could, for example, be connected to the neck strap 3, in particular by means of a Velcro fastener.

Durch Verteilung der Komponenten kann der Tragekomfort für das Inhalationsgerät 7 verbessert werden, was insbesondere bei Benutzung des Inhalationsgeräts beim Reiten mit hoher Geschwindigkeit, z.B. bei einem Pferderennen, von besonderem Vorteil ist.By distributing the components, the wearing comfort for the inhalation device 7 can be improved, which is particularly advantageous when using the inhalation device when riding at high speed, for example during a horse race.
